I think it's likely that we've chased every decent tall forward who's contract was up in the last 3 years. Problem is they wouldn't come to us. (I have zero evidence to support this)
So we went to draft with a long term view (and because we had no other choice). Took Weitering first in 2015 because we needed a defender too and he was rated the best player overall. After that we went McKay and Curnow. The latter looks a ripper and the former is still developing. Also got SOJ and TDK in the works and maybe
We have a forward line in the making, but it will take at least another 2 years before it's ready to go and make opposition defenders panic about playing them. But what choice do we have if existing players won't come to Carlton?
Besides, put Buddy and Kennedy in our forward line yesterday and they too would be made to look mediocre while our mids fumbled like the under 10s on a rainy day.
